I hunted around for an answer to this question in the forum and help doco, including looking at the thread in General titled "How to quickly enter a note in Ultra Recall".
Is there a a keyboard shortcut that will take me straight to the "Item Text" area, whilst my cursor is in an edit control in the "Item Details Pane"?
I can already do the following:
- in the Data Explorer tap the <insert> key to create a new item.
- type in the 1st value of my data entry form and press <tab>
- type in the 2nd value of my data entry form and press <tab>
- {continue as required}
But can I do this?
Let's say I have carefully designed my data entry form so that "critical initial entry" edit controls are towards the top. I now want to skip over the remaining controls going straight to the "Item Text" area to detail my thoughts or paste from clipboard. Rather than having to reach for the mouse, it would be nice to be able to tap <Alt + D> or something similar.
